And, now that you mention it, I have another question." She smiled meekly, hoping he wouldn't think she was unnecessarily focusing on unimportant bits. "How do you actually fix it? I mean, like when you explained about the fire, are there special spells that can overcome these strange results?" she asked, afraid that it hadn't made much sense.

Ben nodded. "Well, there are lots of ways to fix it--most of the time there are a combination of spells, cast by multiple people, that can solve any spell problem that comes up, it's just getting to the solution that can be tricky. One single spell won't always do the trick," he explained, rocking back in his chair slightly as he spoke. "So we just kind of try everything in the playbook and see what works. Lots of times we have at least 3 or 4 people on the scene, trying all sorts of spells until they find the one that works."
